Drudge had his own T.V. show back in the day, and it was a smashing success. BUT, I guessed he didn’t like being in front of T.V. cameras, so he got out of the T.V. business .I believe his show was on Saturday evenings. right?

The best idea is to get the top 5 candidates in a room with their own mikes and a cameras one each of them. Split the screen in 5 parts and have at it, a Lincoln/Douglas free for all.
These are grown men one of whom we will elect to act without moderator or script. Can they not be trusted to act like adults?

Then distribute it to numerous sites, as long as they`re Conservative in nature. There was even a suggestion to give the rights to small cable channels, what do you think? Either way, I`d still want the internet to be the primary host.

I never saw it, pity. Someone said the blowhard Glenn Beck agreed to host it at the Blaze but I don`t trust that self serving jerk. Let him send toys to illegals and keep up his childish, morning gibberish.

Breitbart could do it easily and would likely jump at the opportunity. Same with OAN.

The Internet is the medium of the future, whether or not a cable channel hosts some of it, it must be on-line to make a critical point: WE DON`T NEED THE DINOSUAR BROADCASTING ENTITIES!

I know. I haven't had a television since 1987. But we aren't in the future yet. In my response, I already assumed that there'd be a live stream as well. But no, that is not sufficient for the many people who still use their television for watching these things.

Last night’s debate had 14 million viewers. The bandwidth needed to stream to 14 million viewers at one time would be enormous and expensive.

But, there are companies that can do it.

One of them might do it for the bragging rights.

Ok, but my point is, the whole point of using alternative media would be to keep it out of the Rat party`s, so called, fourth estate`s hands.

I know I`m nobody to make terms, but if we speak with a united voice, we may be heard here. DON`T SUPPORT THE ENEMY MEDIA. Let them pound sand!

How about spreading it out amongst numerous internet entities? Drudge, Breitbart, maybe even that blowhard Beck`s Blaze? And what about letting Freerepublic in on it? Can this site handle a live streaming thread?

Anyone with money can get access to over the air TV stations and cable/satellite with no issue. Reagan bought a half-hour of time in '76 to win the North Carolina primary. You WILL NOT get 30 million people watching an Internet stream. Netflix thought the future arrived, and they had to walk that back really fast.

No, FR can't handle a live stream.

Technically, it's not an easy thing to do, when scaled to millions of viewers.

This is best left to the professionals.

Rinse Pubic said that the candidates can’t do any unofficial debates or they will face double secret probation.

I think you miss the point.

The GOP should hold their OWN official debates, and invite the lamestream media to distribute them, if they wish.

By livestreaming it themselves, they cut out the old media altogether.

They should let Sean Hannity moderate Hillary and Bernie’s next debate.

Probably all the conservative sites would have to stream with one site filming and sending out the stream.

Radio shows that play during that time would have to be in on it and stream as well.

It is about damned time that conservatives worked together to get the word out instead of just sniping at each other.
